Re: Computer drive problems
Good idea, Thanks!Originally posted by nitedmn:<br /> Get rid of the floppy and either use cds or a usb memory card (also knows as a "Jump drive"). Some of the biggest memory cards can hold about the same amount of info as 800 floppy disks. You can buy the smaller cards (128 and 256 MB) for under $20.<br /><br />Floppy disks are VERY unreliable and I find that most stuff I need to put onto a disk won't even fit on one. The only reason I have a floppy drive in my computers is to fill the hole.<br /><br />Oh... I'm not sure how old your computer is but if you don't have a USB port you can get a USB controler (which will add the ports) for around $20.
